How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interview with pre-med advisor, SDN, looked over my application.

What impressed you positively?

How friendly everyone was and how much the students liked the school. Also, the campus is really nice. We got to see the anatomy lab when the M1 students were in there carving up their bodies, it was cool to see them in action.

What impressed you negatively?

I didn't get to see much of Omaha (but from what I did see it seemed like there would be enough stuff to do to keep me entertained in the small amount of free time I would have).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I stayed with a med student host, which I really recommend because they can tell you about the school and about living in Omaha. There are two interviews, one with a med student and one with a faculty member, each of which lasts 30 minutes. They just wanted to get to know you and your motivations for wanting to become a doctor. After the interviews you eat lunch and get a tour of the hospital and of the med school (also parts of the campus like the gym, library and church). There's also a financial aid presentation that was a little depressing.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
